What a year ~ thank you all, for your support and friendship. It means the world.
It’s that time of year, when we think about the ones no longer with us, and hug those still by our side a little tighter.
Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas.

Sometimes, the words left unsaid, are the ones that tell the story.

Many have tried to kill this softness within me. Some have even come close, but it always survives. Then I remember: softness, kindness, empathy, compassion... these things are strengths, not weaknesses.

Autumn has come and gone, and the leaves that were once afire with color, have dried and fallen to the ground. The wind has scattered us far and wide ~ gone are the days when we clung together, full of life, full of color. Winter has come to claim us, and bury our memories in the dirt.

This morning’s endeavour in the Peak District. Two minutes of undeniably glorious light. Autumn getting off to a decent start and I’m trying to get back into the swing of sunrise.

Haven’t painted in a while, so just thought I would get a brush on paper. No reference, just imagination. πŸ™πŸ»

a photo taken at a lake although not much of the lake is shown in it. there are grasses, bushes and trees all around small bits of water.

It is only by selection, by elimination, by emphasis, that we get at the real meaning of things.

i watch them with reverence,
the way they float and flicker,
pearl white specks in a sea of black
and i am jealous of the way
they light the night
i have always been more shadow
than shooting star

Das Bild zeigt eine Nahaufnahme von einem flauschigen, dunklen Hummel, die knapp ΓΌber einer prΓ€chtigen lila BlΓΌte schwebt. Die BlΓΌte besteht aus mehreren dicht angeordneten, samtigen BlΓΌtenblΓ€ttern und ragt wie eine kleine SΓ€ule nach oben. Die Hummel ist in den oberen linken Bildbereich geflogen, heftig im Flug, mit deutlich sichtbaren FlΓΌgeln und Beinen. Der Hintergrund ist verschwommen, in einem hellgrΓΌnen Farbton, sodass das krΓ€ftige Lila der BlΓΌte und das braune Fell der Hummel besonders leuchten.

A filter-free close up of a blush pink rose as the morning light softly illuminates her delicate petals. The rose sits on my nightstand, and yes, she’s a beauty.
